Natural appeal
Featuring Sony’s TRILUMINOS PRO display and powerful Processor X1, the Sony BRAVIA FWD-43X80L puts picture quality at the heart of its appeal. For vivid colour and lifelike motion, this Sony is hard to beat. Smart Google TV and excellent connectivity complete the winning formula.
Sony 4K HDR Processor X1 for perfect picture control
With Sony’s X1 processor onboard, this Sony 43 inch TV delivers the very best from 4K HDR images. The processor enhances all aspects of the image, including colour, contrast and clarity, delivering optimised depth and realism. Working with the TRILUMINOS PRO display, colours are faithful and authentic, helping the screen produce the most natural and lifelike colour.
Support for HDR10 and Dolby Vision
Making the most of its 4K screen, the FWD-43X80L supports a range of HDR formats, for the ultimate image definition. As well as HDR10 and HLG formats, this Sony is also compatible with Dolby Vision. Dolby Vision optimises the HDR format to give sharper, more detailed images. Very much an industry standard, Dolby Vision continually adjusts the picture for the most remarkable realism.
Motionflow XR 200 for blur-free viewing
Sony’s Motionflow XR 200 tech keeps motion smooth, without looking artificial. Getting the ideal balance between blur-free images and natural movement, Motionflow XR 200 works brilliantly with action movies and fast moving sports events.
4K X-Reality PRO upscaling
Thanks to Sony's 4K X-Reality Pro technology, standard images from TV and other sources are taken as close to UHD 4K resolution as possible, giving the picture stunning clarity.
X-Balanced speakers for crisp audio
Designed to enhance both the sound and style of this Sony TV, X-Balanced speakers use a unique design to enhance the clarity of speech and music, whilst keeping the cabinet sleek and slim. For the best in cinema sound, the sound is also compatible with Dolby Atmos audio.
Acoustic Auto Calibration for optimised sound
The Sony BRAVIA FWD-43X80L detects objects within the room and intelligently adapts the sound. Soft furnishings, such as heavy curtains can dull the room’s sound, for example, so the Sony optimises the sound to compensate for this. Just as it does to overcome any obstacles that may be in the way of the TV – such as a coffee table.
